1968 dually bed project........trim or no trim??? You decide
1968 C30 dually with Longhorn bed (thanks UNCLE)
So what do you all think..........should I go with a clean bed to match the cab or should I put the trim on the cab to match the bed. I have the trim so it could go either way.

So you'd use 69-72 side trim with a 68 front end? I'm planning on doing the same on the Tahoe so you know my vote...

I vote for no trim. I like the way the front clip looks w/o trim.

Thanks for posting the pics 72freak with a bed on a dually. That just answered a question I had. I figured the dual wheels would stick out further than that but I was wrong. If that's as far out as the dual wheels go then there is no point in fabbing up flares to put on the bed. BTW, I say no trim.
